First name :
Annette

Name you (may) wish you had :
Amélie

What do people normally call you ?
Annette, Ann, troisnyx*, Trois (yes, I know it sounds absurd because that’s French for three), TNE

Birthday :
1991/04/12

Birthplace :
Chinese Maternity Hospital (now taken over by Tung Shin), KL

Time of birth :
1:36 pm

Single or taken :
I’m not disclosing this.

Zodiac sign :
Aries

APPEARANCE

How tall are you :
170cm (metric measurement : approximately 5’7”)

Wish you were taller ?
I don’t know. Mom used to tell me that 5’10” would be a nice height for me.

Eye colour :
Dark brown

Current hair colour :
Brown with hints of electric blue, auburn and black. It's been the same colour since I was born.

Short or long hair :
Long, isn’t it obvious ?

Ever dyed your hair a bizarre colour ?
I wouldn’t dare, unless I’m thinking of screening a video of sorts and I’d have to find some wacky highlight colour for my hair.

Last time you did something dramatic with you hair :
I did this dramatic thing with my hair and realised that the hairdresser did a blunder out of my hair. She told me to wash my hair two days after straightening. I washed after three days, thinking that maybe all that conditioner would take a longer time to settle in my hair. I came out of the bathroom and poof ! all my straight hair turned into frizzy hair.

Glasses or contacts :
Neither, thank God.

Do you wear make-up ?
Only for functions. But when I do, I play with subtle shades.

Paint your nails :
I started colouring my nails after my secondary school years were over. I tried red and dark pink on my toes, and after removing those colours from my toes, I never coloured my toenails ever since. As for my fingers... I tried light metallic blue, I tried brown (see my pre-C1 post), I tried... hot pink, I tried light pink with hot pink paw prints. But those are the only shades I have !

Shy or outgoing :
I'm outgoing with close friends and shy with new people.

Sexy or cute :
Redefine sexy.

Serious or fun :
Fun. Some people (including DK) have accused me for being overly eccentric. But that's who I am, and that'll stay !

A turn-on :
Someone who’s God-fearing, loving, caring, decent, has proper higher education and is musically inclined. Such a person may be rare but I’ll keep on finding – or better still, God will lead me to that person someday ! Oh, and maybe a Kingdom Hearts installation or an album from any one of my favourite artistes/bands.

A turnoff :
Smokers (especially those who puff at others’ faces), drug abusers, those who love flirting excessively, those who do so much of social networking just because there’s nothing else to do.

DIS OR DAT

Flowers or chocolates :
Chocolates. Dark chocolate would be nice.

Pepsi or coke :
Neither. Both of them have an acidity level of pH1, did you know ?

Rap or rock :
You’re asking me to choose between the two ? Rock it is.

Relationship or one night stand :
Relationship, no doubt. And I want that match to be made in heaven, not a temporary high, merci.

School or work :
-.-*

Love or money :
Love. If you give me money, give me a just wage for an honest day’s work, no more, no less. I cannot be the slave of both God and money.

Movie or music :
Music. Did I mention anywhere on troisnyx* officiel that I hardly spend time watching movies ?

Country or city :
Depends on where I am. If I’m stuck somewhere in the Loire Valley or Brittany or some backwater French region (Limousin perhaps ?) give me the countryside !

Sunny or rainy days :
Rainy days. It's so lovely to sleep during rainy days.

Friends or family :
Both, and no compromising.

HAVE YOU EVER

Lied :
Baby, well, I’m not a saint...

Stole something :
I don’t remember what I stole, or when I did it, but yes, I have stolen something before.

Smoked :
Codswallop, no !

Hurt someone close to you :
Like I said, I’m not a saint...

Broke someone's heart :
Define breaking someone’s heart, s’il vous plaît.

Wonder what was wrong with you :
Yes. That too, when I’d sit down and play Kingdom Hearts II/Re : Chain and lose in battle.

Wish you were a prince or princess :
Well, if I did wish I were a princess, I’d probably have wished for a subtle but magical story. See, I could write in Les Histoires Duchemin and wish my main character Aimée Duchemin to be a coincidental princess.

Like someone who was taken :
I don’t know for sure.

Shaved your head :
I didn’t shave my head, the hairdresser once used the shaving thingy on me to take away my sideburns !

Used chopsticks :
The last time I ever used chopsticks was when I was having wan tan mee in a coffee stall in Ipoh, some two years back.

Sang in the mirror to yourself :
Many times. I was trying to train my voice. Well, I guess the mirror has faith in me because it ultimately didn’t break.

MISCELLANY

Ever cried over someone :
Yes. Evidently. Those of you who are familiar with troisnyx* officiel should know that my mom passed away in late August.

Is there anything you wish you could change about yourself :
I need to stop being rash. I get very easily angered.

Do you think you're attractive :
(you may very well answer this question for me, merci)

If you had to choose a fairytale as your life what would you choose :
Belle from Beauty and the Beast. She’s sincere and caring. And... the entire story of Beauty and the Beast (especially when played in Kingdom Hearts II) is fun à la française !

Do you play any sports :
Used to play table tennis but got fed up of it, then turned to athletics but couldn’t run. The only parts I got involved in were the high jump and discus throw. Now, do you think I’m game anymore ? No.
